Foresight Linux

Tag: Distros, Linux, LiveCDsVlogcanic @ 10:52 pm

Foresight Linux is an USA-based distro developed from rPath Linux by a bunch of Red Hat veterans. It uses GNOME as the desktop environment and it usually delivers new version releases at the same time that the Project GNOME releases new stable desktop environments.

It’s built upon Conary package management software, originally developed by rPath.

Foresight Linux is usually available from the rPath download mirrors as an installation LiveDVD or as two installation CDs (.iso images are available for the creation of boot disks too) in either 32 bit or 64 bit Intel architecture.

Despite the fact that Foresight lacks a bit in popularity, it consistently makes an effort to showcase the newest more innovative stuff you can find in the GNOME enviroment. Both projects, GNOME and Foresight, share an emphasis on simplicity of use, and out-of-the box usablity.
